Beaver chews through an entire tree in ten minutes in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan to make dam.

[@kaptinkuntry3092]

I had the pleasure of witnessing something like this first hand out where I worked in the oil patch. This was before smart phones so no video, it was exactly like this only a much bigger tree. He fell the tree and then worked on trimming more manageable branches to drag back to his pond. About an hour and a trek of maybe 150 Yds he had some huge branches back at his pond stock piled for winter. The whole thing was so amazing to witness. I had another run in with a beaver when I worked for Ducks Unlimited, but will save it for another time.

[@richartrod]

Impressive. The beaver knows where and how to gnaw away at the tree trunk so it would fall down away from him and under its own weight. And then find the right spot to bite the felled tree in two when it was too big to carry. Beavers indeed are nature's engineers!

[@snowysnowyriver]

And also know the right height to fell the tree so that it grows again. They always leave enough trunk so the tree does not die. Here in the UK beavers have been reintroduced after being extinct for 400 years. They are working wonders by coppicing overgrown riverbanks. All the trees get their chance at life instead of dying due to lack of space.

[@rosesperfumelace]

@badsolja1 Poison ivy is poisonous for humans to eat, and eucalyptus is poisonous for humans to eat. Animals eat those things. Beavers have teeth made for chopping wood. 🤦‍♀️ LOOK IT UP! Search for the anatomy of a beavers head.

The mic you have in your camera really does a great job of aurally capturing the chisel-like qualities of those beaver chompers. It's a lot like viewing the ASMR-style shorts found on KZbin of woodworkers crafting dovetail and other types of joints with high quality and very sharp handtools. 😆 Thank you so much for the considerable time you take to record and share these sightings with the rest of us who have a great deal of admiration for these amazing animals, and greetings from the Seattle-Tacoma suburbs, very near the shores of the Southern Salish Sea!

Beavers usually don't give much care to humans. I watched one stand off with a truck. Idiot honked at a beaver dragging a good sized tree across the road. Beaver got pissed off, dropped the tree and while hissing, charged the truck a few feet. Quite funny to see. Scary too.. they can move fast

I believe the reason the beaver stops at certain times is to recalculate the height of the tree to see if he needs to adjust the bites on the tree.Just my 2 cents, or he could be watching for HAWKS. 🤷‍♂️

[@julietenning7981]

Like to see a hawk try and take a beaver.

[@ModMokkaMatti]

Tying into your hypothesis, from the various other videos I've watched of beavers in action over the past few months in particular, it may be quite possible that the beaver is also pausing to listen for any detectable cracking sounds of the tree, so that it can compute how close the tree is being felled and whether it is maintaining the planned-for direction (perhaps more applicable to specimens of far greater trunk caliper than this); that way they can ensure that they are clear of its trajectory, and don't become flattened in the process, once gravity lends its assistance.
